- Rose, Book, Thorn
- Rose: Fun to go into the barn and rummage around tapping and banging random things laying around. It also inspired me for new DIY stuff for rustic room decor ideas.
- Book: I learned about the sounds and vibrations of different types of instruments. I also learned about new artists like Philip Glass and Regina Carter.
- Thorn: I didn't like sitting around for a long time. I wished that we could build and create stuff in front of the class because then we get input and ideas from other folks when constructing our things.
- I am looking forward to exploring different sounds and pitches I can create with random items laying around. I am also excited to try and cover a simple song with my flower pots, but if that's too hard, I'll create my own. Another thing that I'm looking forward to is trying to overlap different recordings- like one recording/video of me playing the flower pots, one recording/video of me playing the horseshoes, and maybe another recording/video of me tapping the pole of an old street sign. I'm still exploring.
- The first song I listened to was Philip Glass's Etudes (No. 5 & 6) and I loved these. At first, I was hesitant because I don't really listen to music that is only instrumental, but it was really nice to listen too. Later that evening I played it before I went to bed. haha
- Questions for the guest musicians: Have you ever created an original? do you incorporate different instruments or movements in your songs? advice for someone who is starting fresh and trying to play the guitar?
- Song recommendation for the studio playlist: To Die For by Sam Smith, From Eden by Hozier, I Hate LA bu Hot Chelle Rae, Piano Man by Billy Joel (:
